Syntax enable-admin
Context <global>
Description NOTE: See the description for the admin-password on the previous page. If the admin-password is
configured in the config>system>security>password context, then any user can enter the special
administrative mode by entering the enable-admin command.
enable-admin is in the default profile. By default, all users are given access to this command.
Once the enable-admin command is entered, the user is prompted for a password. If the password
matches, user is given unrestricted access to all the commands.
The minimum length of the password is determined by the minimum-length command. The com-
plexity requirements for the password is determined by the complexity command.
There are two ways to verify that a user is in the enable-admin mode:
• show users — Administrator can know which users are in this mode.
• Enter the enable-admin command again at the root prompt and an error message will be returned.
